Filing tickets is not possible because of obvious reasons. Just test it
yourself spaetzle.

I surely did not tell you that. I know the WRT54GL better than you and
there is no need for madwifi on WRTs.

Maybe you should not try to play with hardware you have no idea about.
You pasted links to the hardware description page of your router at
freewrt.org, maybe you should also have read it.

In my personal view this states clearly that PEBKAC.

I start believing everything.

Just to make this clear. I initially didn't want to participate in this
discussion at all, because trying to help users who don't RTFM is
useless. But as there have been told so many things which just aren't
true, I saw no other possibility than writing this flame.

Christian Stålp: you're having user-problems. You perfectly fit into the
scheme of a user. So please use the freewrt-users list and don't bother
freewrt-developers with dumbass questions anymore.

Greetings, Phil
